The Church of Almighty God | The One Who Holds Sovereignty Over Everything

Is Mankind Really in Control of Its Own Fate?

Many people think that their fate is in their own hands—but will you still believe this when faced with disaster? Will you not feel shock, fear, and horror? Will you not feel small and insignificant, will you not sense the fragility of life? Who can save us?

Almighty God says, "What part of God’s disposition should we understand from here? God had despised man because man was in enmity to Him, but in His heart, His care, concern, and mercy for humanity remained unchanged. Even when He destroyed mankind, His heart remained unchanged. When humanity was full of corruption and disobedient toward God to a certain extent, God had to, because of His disposition and His essence, and in accordance with His principles, destroy this humanity. But because of God’s essence, He still pitied mankind, and even wanted to use various ways to redeem mankind so they could continue to live. Instead, man opposed God, continued to disobey God, and refused to accept God’s salvation, that is, refused to accept His good intentions. No matter how God called to them, reminded them, supplied them, helped them, or tolerated them, man did not understand or appreciate it, nor did they pay attention. In His pain, God still did not forget to give man His maximum tolerance, waiting for man to turn around. After He reached His limit, He did what He had to do without any hesitation. In other words, there was a specific time period and process from the moment God planned to destroy mankind to the official start of His work in destroying mankind. This process existed for the purpose of enabling man to turn around, and was the last chance God gave to man. So what did God do in this period before destroying mankind? God did a significant amount of reminding and exhorting work. No matter how much pain and sorrow God’s heart was in, He continued to exercise His care, concern, and abundant mercy on humanity. What do we see from this? Undoubtedly, we see that God’s love for mankind is real and not just something He is paying lip service to. It is actual, tangible and appreciable, not fake, adulterated, deceitful or pretentious. God never uses any deception or creates fake images to make people see that He is lovable. He never uses false testimony to let people see His loveliness, or to flaunt His loveliness and holiness. Aren’t these aspects of God’s disposition worthy of man’s love? Aren’t they worth worshiping? Aren’t they worth cherishing? At this point, I want to ask you: After hearing these words, do you think God’s greatness is merely words on a sheet of paper? Is God’s loveliness just empty words? No! Certainly not! God’s supremacy, greatness, holiness, tolerance, love, and so forth—all of these various aspects of God’s disposition and essence are put into effect every time He does His work, embodied in His will toward man, and also fulfilled and reflected on every person. Regardless of whether you have felt it before, God is caring for every person in every possible way, using His sincere heart, wisdom, and various methods to warm each person’s heart, and awaken each person’s spirit. This is an indisputable fact. No matter how many people are sitting here, each person has had different experiences of and feelings toward God’s tolerance, patience, and loveliness. These experiences of God and these feelings or acknowledgments of Him—in short, all of these positive things are from God. So by integrating everyone’s experiences and knowledge of God and combining them with our readings of these Bible passages today, do you now have a more real and proper understanding of God?"

The Church of Almighty God | Reading Almighty God's Words

I was born and raised in a clan steeped in the Catholic tradition. My siblings and I were educated in Catholic institutions. The priests, nuns, and my mother taught us to say the rosary and pray to the statues of the saints and of the Blessed Mother. There was another practice in the Catholic Church: making repetitious prayers with our fingers in the “holy” water or our hands on the statues. The priests said that we would be purified by doing so. However, as I advanced into my teenage years, I stopped believing that touching those so-called purifying objects would cause our sins to be forgiven or our illnesses to be healed. And I began to doubt that keeping those religious rites could make us approved by God and gain blessings from God. There were always some questions in my mind: Where on earth is God? Why do we always need to deal with the priests and contact God through touching statues? In the Catholic Church, I did not have a direct contact with God or feel His presence, so there was emptiness in my heart. Although I believed in God, I felt my belief didn’t make any sense because the church was full of dogmas and rules which were made by men and I could not receive any life provision. Afterward, I quit observing those religious dogmas and regulations and no longer went to the church to attend Mass and other religious services. 

When I grew up, I worked as a teacher for five years in a remote Indo-Chinese refugee camp where many of my students were Buddhists. They invited me to a temple but I did not convert, because I knew that only the Lord Jesus is the true God. Though the Buddhist scriptures seemed appealing and reasonable to me as they taught people to be merciful and showed them how to practice, I didn’t think they were the truth. I wanted to find a church which truly belonged to God, so that I could gain the truth from Him.

In 1994, my friend invited me to their church (a Catholic charismatic renewal group that emphasized gifts of speaking in tongues, healing sickness, casting out demons and so on). There was Mass every day. She asked me to attend at least one prayer meeting and one Bible study a week. There, I learned to pray to God in a personal way. I felt that it seemed to be the spiritual church I had been looking for. However, I later discovered that some people in the church were like the Pharisees. At that time, as my family broke up, my older daughter and I experienced discrimination by them. They said that people with such a background like ours were not welcome in their church. My daughter was very young then, but she had to suffer all this as well. I felt confused again and started to wander and no longer got involved with that religious group.

After that episode, another friend of mine who was a born-again Christian invited me to their Sunday worship. That group focused on preaching biblical theology. They treated the Bible as a precious treasure which could tell them everything. She also took me to attend various church services. I saw that their faith was on the basis of the Bible and I also learned something from their preaching. I no longer prayed to Mary, saints, or martyrs. However, the pastors differed greatly in their interpretations of the Bible. Originally, I had intended to worship God and gain the truth in that group. But I was not sure whose interpretation was in line with the truth and I didn’t get any supply at all there. Moreover, they set down some regulations. For example, a wife should consider her husband as the head and must obey him. My friend was a widow and was planning to marry again, but a pastor advised her against it. He said that it violated the Bible. Though I was comfortably off, I felt thirsty and dark in the spirit. I always prayed to God and tried to discover the reason. I didn’t know the direction of my life and felt like a spiritual drifter.

Until 2015, my younger daughter told me that the Lord has returned and that God has been incarnated as a female and expressed the truth to do the work of judgment in the last days in China. She asked me what I thought about it. I became interested in it. I thought that God is almighty and wise, that no one can fathom His wonder, and that He can do His work in many ways incomprehensible to man. For example, the Lord Jesus Christ was born in the most unexpected place—a manger. So I had no doubt that God is incarnated as a female to do His work. My daughter also told me that the Old Testament and the New Testament are the historical records of God’s work in the Age of Law and the Age of Grace. Now God does the work of judgment in the last days, the third stage of work in God’s entire management plan, based upon the redemptive work in the Age of Grace. Those words sounded very novel and aroused my curiosity. Seeing I was interested in what she fellowshiped and showed no opposition to it, my daughter tried to persuade me to fellowship with a sister in the Unites States. However, I was unwilling to deal with foreign churches at that point, so I refused her request and did not investigate God’s work in the last days.

Fast-forward to February of 2016, and my daughter printed fifteen pieces of God’s word for me to read. She opened The Word Appears in the Flesh and turned to the Preface. I saw some of God’s words, “Though many people believe in God, few understand what faith in God means, and what they must do to be after God’s heart. This is because, though people are familiar with the word ‘God’ and phrases such as ‘the work of God,’ they do not know God, much less do they know His work. No wonder, then, that all those who do not know God are possessed of a muddled belief. People do not take belief in God seriously because believing in God is too unfamiliar, too strange for them. In this way, they fall short of the demands of God. In other words, if people do not know God, do not know His work, then they are not fit for God’s use, much less can they fulfill the desire of God. ‘Belief in God’ means believing that there is a God; this is the simplest concept of faith in God. What’s more, believing that there is a God is not the same as truly believing in God; rather, it is a kind of simple faith with strong religious overtones. True faith in God means experiencing the words and work of God based on a belief that God holds sovereignty over all things. So you shall be freed of your corrupt disposition, shall fulfill the desire of God, and shall come to know God. Only through such a journey can you be said to believe in God” (Preface to The Word Appears in the Flesh).

After reading those words, I felt very shocked in my heart. In all the sects I had ever gone to, they all claimed that they were believers in God, but none of them was serious about what belief in God meant, much less able to explain it clearly. The Catholic Church treated holding to the dogmas and rites as belief in God, such as chanting various scriptures, attending Mass and confessing to the priests. The Christians treated reading and explaining the Bible, attending meetings, praying, and working for the Lord as belief in God. Some sects considered belief in God as the following: speaking in tongues, healing sickness, casting out demons, pursuing miracles, and so on. Buddhism regarded worshiping clay statues as belief in God. However, Almighty God uses only one sentence to fully articulate the meaning of belief in God. Though I was unable to completely understand the inner meaning of this sentence, I felt that this definition of belief in God could not be spoken by any man but by God. It is God’s voice and is the truth. At that moment, I thought: I finally found the God who can bestow upon me the truth and supply me with His word. Nonetheless, I didn’t understand what God’s management plan was.

In March 2016, because of the designs of God, I had my first fellowship with Sister Jane and Brother Martin. Sister Jane fellowshiped about God’s six-thousand-year management plan with me. She said, “Thanks be to God! Today we come together to seek the truth, which pleases God most. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Almighty God’s words can solve all our confusions.” I said, “Now I’d like to know what God’s management plan is.” Sister Jane first read Almighty God’s words, “All of God’s disposition has been revealed throughout the six-thousand-year management plan. It is not revealed only in the Age of Grace, only in the Age of Law, or even less so, only in this period of the last days. The work done in the last days represents judgment, wrath and chastisement. The work done in the last days cannot replace the work of the Age of Law or that of the Age of Grace. However, the three stages interconnect into one entity and are all the work done by one God. Naturally, the execution of this work is divided into separate ages. The work done in the last days brings everything to a close; that done in the Age of Law is of commencement; and that done in the Age of Grace is of redemption” (“The Mystery of the Incarnation (4)” in The Word Appears in the Flesh).

“In the work of man’s salvation, three stages have been carried out, which is to say that the battle with Satan has been split into three stages prior to the complete defeat of Satan. Yet the inner truth of the entire work of the battle with Satan is that its effects are achieved through bestowing grace upon man, and becoming a sin offering of man, forgiving the sins of man, conquering man, and making man perfect. As a matter of fact, the battle with Satan is not the taking up of arms against Satan, but the salvation of man, the working of the life of man, and the changing of man’s disposition so that he may bear testimony to God. This is how Satan is defeated. Satan is defeated through changing the corrupt disposition of man. When Satan has been defeated, that is, when man has been completely saved, then the ashamed Satan will be completely bound, and in this way, man will have been completely saved. And so, the substance of man’s salvation is the battle with Satan, and the war with Satan is primarily reflected in the salvation of man. The stage of the last days, in which man is to be conquered, is the last stage in the battle with Satan, and also the work of man’s complete salvation from the domain of Satan” (“Restoring the Normal Life of Man and Taking Him to a Wonderful Destination” in The Word Appears in the Flesh).

Then she fellowshiped, “God’s words have made it clear that the three stages of God’s work are God’s management plan of saving mankind. In the beginning, mankind didn’t have knowledge of the Creator, how the heavens, the earth and all things were formed, or how to worship God. God decreed the laws and commandments under the name of Jehovah and used them to lead and restrict man so that they could learn how to serve and worship Him. If man committed sins, they could sacrifice the offerings required by God to redeem their sins. Those who violated the commandments would be put to death while those who obeyed the laws would receive God’s blessings. At the same time, people came to know they were sinners. In this way, people could see God’s disposition was curse, burning and mercy. In the late phase of the Age of Law, people could no longer keep the laws and all lived in the curse and condemnation of the laws. So, God became flesh as the Son of man and was nailed to the cross for mankind’s sins under the name of the Lord Jesus, and completed the work of redeeming mankind. As long as man came before the Lord Jesus to confess and repent, He would forgive their sins and no longer regard them as sinners. Then people were qualified to pray to Him and receive His grace and blessings. From it, people could see God’s lovingkindness, compassion and tolerance. Though the Lord Jesus has forgiven man’s sins, He didn’t forgive man’s sinful nature. So, people are still arrogant, self-right, self-important, self-conceited, selfish, greedy and evil and are controlled and bound by their satanic natures, unable to extricate themselves. In the last days, God becomes flesh as the Son of man again and does the work of judgment with His word under the name of Almighty God to purify man and save man thoroughly from sin. As long as people accept and obey the work of judgment God does in the last days, they can know the truth that they have been corrupted by Satan, know God’s majestic, wrathful, righteous and holy disposition, understand and gain the truth, and live by the truth. And finally they will get rid of satanic dispositions like arrogance, self-conceit, crookedness, craftiness, selfishness and contemptibleness, no longer be deceived, tempted or used by Satan, overcome the influence of Satan and obey God truly, and thus be thoroughly saved by God. This is the result achieved by God’s six-thousand-year management plan. Each of the three stages of God’s work is indispensable and goes higher and deeper than the last. In the end, man will be saved completely from Satan’s domain.”

Almighty God’s words and the sister’s fellowship surprised me a lot. It turned out that God has such a specific plan of saving mankind. The three stages of God’s work in the Age of Law, the Age of Grace and the Age of Kingdom are not independent but are linked one to the next. They are done by one God, who takes different names in different ages. I also saw that God’s work is very practical, that Almighty God is not the vague God in man’s imagination but God incarnate, who carries out His work among man practically as an ordinary person. The work God does now is to judge and chastise man, so that Satan will be defeated finally and man will be perfected by God. I realized that God hopes man can grow in life amidst His management plan and that He cares about the human beings He created.

In the following days, we often had meetings online, read Almighty God’s words and fellowshiped about the truth. I understood more and more truths, such as the truth about God’s incarnation, how God judges and purifies man in the last days, and the differences between God’s work and man’s work. I’ve seen that there are no regulations or rites in the Church of Almighty God. Everything is based on reality. We fellowship about the truth according to our corrupt dispositions, and equip ourselves with the truth according to what we lack. No matter what we do, we regard the truth as principles. The Church of Almighty God is completely ruled by the truth and God’s word, and is the church I had been yearning for. Now through reading Almighty God’s words every day, sharing our experiences and knowledge, and trying our best to practice what God asks us to do, I have a feeling of fulfillment in my spirit. In the Age of Grace, though I had been calling to God, I could only hold to the religious rites in the church and could not be supplied in my spirit. Since I joined the Church of Almighty God, I’ve felt even more that Almighty God is a practical God, who lives among us and provides us with everything necessary to our life.

Thinking back upon the past, to seek the truth and look for a church with God’s presence, I went to many churches in different denominations. However, they observed regulations and rites, worshiped idols, or equipped themselves with biblical knowledge and theology. I could not feel God’s presence at all and didn’t gain the truth, which made me feel more and more discouraged and disappointed about faith in God. Today, I finally found the source of the truth—Almighty God, and returned to God’s family. From now on, I will no longer wander around. Instead, I will quiet my heart before Almighty God, read His word seriously and equip myself with more truths, so that I can grow in life quickly and perform my duty well as a created being to satisfy Him.

The Church of Almighty God | Exploration of the "Mystery"

My wife and I had believed in the Lord for 18 years. One day after breakfast, I went to the yard to pull up weeds as usual, and my wife was reading a book carefully in the room. Butwhen I was entering the room, she stopped reading and hastily hid the book. Her action aroused my curiosity: Over the eighteen years of believing in the Lord Jesus, she seldom read the Bible in the daytime but only read it in the gatherings, as we got lots of household chores to do. But why has she changed after she came back from seeing a doctor last time? Can it be that she has accepted the Eastern Lightning? For I heard that the Eastern Lightning’s book is very fascinating. But I then thought: It’s impossible. The Eastern Lightning followers told us that the Lord has come back and is called Almighty God, and that He has become flesh as a female. But the Lord Jesus was male; even if He has come back, He must still be male. How can He be female? We have believed in the Lord for over 10 years; we can discern this problem. Besides, my wife opposed the Eastern Lightning vigorously before, and she didn’t even allow the Eastern Lightning followers into our yard whenever they came to preach the gospel to us. Thus, it’s impossible for her to read their book. But what on earth is she reading that attracts her so much? Is it about belief in God? Driven by curiosity, many times I wanted to ask her what she was reading, but I bit the words back, afraid that she wouldn’t tell me the truth. After turning over the matter in my mind, I decided to pretend to be ignorant of it and watch for a chance to sneak a look at her book,and then the truth would be out.

One morning, my wife, wearing reading glasses, was absorbed in reading the book in her hands. Meanwhile, I was pulling up weeds in the front yard. Then through the window I saw a cow get into our backyard. Intending to seize the opportunity to send my wife away, I yelled at her loudly, “A cow has broken into the backyard. Hurry to drive it away! Hurry up!” But she was reluctant to put aside her book, and said, “You go. I’m busy now.” Hearing this, I had no intention to go, and went on to shout, “I’m tied up. Why don’t you go?” So she agreed grudgingly. I cast furtive glances at her, and saw her put the book into the cabinet and go to the backyard. So I hastened to the room and took out the book. I saw that the book’s name is The Scroll Opened by the Lamb. For fear that she would be back soon, I nervously flipped the pages as I cast glances at her through the window. When I saw her driving the cow up the hill, I was secretly thrilled, for I knew that she wouldn’t be back shortly. Thereupon, I flipped through the contents pages quickly: “Concerning the Practice of Prayer,” “Concerning the Bible (1),” “Concerning the Bible (2),” “Concerning the Bible (3),” “Concerning the Bible (4),” …. It turned out that the book was really about belief in God. But I didn’t dare to read it carefully and quickly put it back, in fear of being seen by my wife. After that, I returned to the front yard and went on with my work, thinking: Now I know the book is about belief in God and where it is put, and I’ll have a good read of it in her absence.

Then came my chance. One day, my wife felt the familiar ache in her lower back. So, when she was out to see a doctor, I laid aside my work and went into the room, and I took out the book to see its contents. I opened the book and happened to see this sentence, “Though many people believe in God, few understand what faith in God means,” which immediately riveted my attention. “It’s true. I have been a believer in God for more than 10 years, but I’m indeed ignorant of what faith in God means. Now that this question has been raised, there must be an answer in the book.” Then I read on, “‘Belief in God’ means believing that there is a God; this is the simplest concept of faith in God. What’s more, believing that there is a God is not the same as truly believing in God; rather, it is a kind of simple faith with strong religious overtones. True faith in God means experiencing the words and work of God based on a belief that God holds sovereignty over all things. So you shall be freed of your corrupt disposition, shall fulfill the desire of God, and shall come to know God. Only through such a journey can you be said to believe in God” (Preface to The Word Appears in the Flesh). I was astonished by this passage of words. I thought: Who said these words? And who is capable of making the belief in God so plain? He even has pointed out the path of belief in God for man—man has to experience the words and work of God based on a belief that God holds sovereignty over all things, so that he can be freed of his corrupt disposition to fulfill the desire of God and come to know God. And only through such a journey can one count as having true faith in God. Comparing these words with my years of belief, I have no true belief in God at all. When I listen to the preaching, it just goes in one ear and out the other, and I can’t put it into practice after hearing it. Reflecting on these words, I saw I had a confused kind of faith. I went on to read a few more pieces of words. Deeply attracted by them, I took notes while I was reading. And in the following days, once my wife went out, I would lose no time in getting the book out and reading it. But what often happened was that she was back at precisely the moment when I came to the key part, which made me more eager to finish the book earlier.

Finally I couldn’t help asking my wife to let me read her book. Unexpectedly, she readily consented. From then on, I no longer had to read it secretly. One day, I saw these words in the book: “In this way, all people during the last days shall see that I am the Savior returned, I am the Almighty God that conquers all of mankind….” Upon seeing the words “Almighty God,” my heart sunk and I stopped reading at once. “Is it not the book of the Eastern Lightning? I have been guarding against it in this way or that way for six years, but in the end what I’m reading is exactly its book.” At that moment, I was at a loss to decide whether I should read on or not. “According to the Eastern Lightning followers, the Lord Jesus has returned and He has become flesh as a female. The Lord is evidently male, so how is it possible for Him to be female when He comes back? That just doesn’t make sense. And I cannot read it any longer no matter how good it is. If I take a wrong way, wouldn’t my over ten years of belief be in vain?” At this thought, I closed the book and put it aside. Then I walked back and forth in the yard with a heavy heart. I was in low spirits, and just couldn’t give my mind to any work I did. The words of the book I had read in those days kept recurring to my mind, “I hope that you will read it to the end, and will not put it aside easily.” “Perhaps, having heard the way of truth and read the word of life, you believe that only one in 10,000 of these words are in line with your convictions and the Bible, and then you should continue to seek in that 10,000th of these words.” These words lingered in my mind all the time, and I pondered: Merely one ten thousandth? How small the proportion is! The words I have read in these days sound reasonable, and most of them are in line with the Bible. Actually the proportion is far more than one ten thousandth. The purpose of these words is to tell people never to put the book aside easily. So, should I go on reading? If it is really the work of God but I don’t accept it, then am I not resisting God? At that time, I recalled that the Bible says, “And now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nothing; But if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it; lest haply you be found even to fight against God” (Acts 5:38-39). Thinking back over the past six years, Almighty God’s kingdom gospel had been preached to us constantly. If it didn’t come from God, the Church of Almighty God could not have developed to the present day, neither would any member of the Church of Almighty God have such great faith to keep preaching the gospel to us. And if the gospel does come from God and I refuse to accept it, then I will be resisting God, and won’t be saved in the end. At that moment, I was ambivalent about it. I thought it over and over, and finally decided to read through the book to see whether it was the true way; if it was, I would continue to read it together with my wife; but if not, I would keep her from reading it. After making the decision, I hurried with my reading. While reading, I found those words were in accordance with the truth, but I also felt puzzled about some of them. Within a few days, I finished reading it. Then I said to my wife seriously, “I have finished reading. It seems to be the word of God, for no one else can speak such words. But there are still some words incomprehensible to me. You find sisters from the Church of Almighty God for me; I have some questions to ask them. Provided that they can solve my puzzles, we will accept the gospel. Otherwise, you shall not believe in the way, either, and we’ll ask them to take away the book.” My wife seemed very glad to hear that, and answered with assurance, “Okay, then it’s settled!”

The next evening, Sister Sun came to our house at our invitation. She said to me in a mild tone, “Uncle, if you have any puzzles, just feel free to communicate with me.” “You said that the Lord Jesus has come back and is female. But the Lord was obviously male; how could He be female when He returns?” I asked earnestly. She replied smilingly, “Genesis records that God created male and female in His image. Then, can you tell me whether God is male or female?” Her words stunned me, and I had no idea how to reply. At this moment, she added, “So we cannot delineate God and conclude that He is only male. Let’s read a passage of Almighty God’s words, ‘Each stage of work done by God has a real significance. When Jesus arrived, He was male, and this time He is female. From this, you can see that God created both male and female for His work and with Him there is no distinction of gender. When His Spirit arrives, He can take on any flesh at will and the flesh represents Him. Be it male or female, both represent God as long as it is His incarnate flesh. If Jesus arrived and appeared as a female, in other words, if an infant girl, not a boy, was to be conceived by the Holy Spirit, that stage of work would have been completed all the same. If so, this stage of work would have to be completed instead by a male and the work would then be completed all the same. The work done in both stages is significant; no work is repeated or conflicts with each other. At the time of His work, Jesus was called the only Son, which indicates the male gender. Then why is the only Son not mentioned in this stage? This is because the needs of the work have necessitated a change to the gender different from that of Jesus. With God there is no distinction of gender. His work is done as He wishes and is not subject to any restrictions, particularly free, but every stage has a real significance. God became flesh twice, and it goes without saying that His incarnation in the last days is the last time. He has come to reveal all His deeds. If in this stage He did not become flesh to personally do work for man to witness, man would forever hold on to the notion that God is only male, not female’ (‘The Two Incarnations Complete the Significance of the Incarnation’ in The Word Appears in the Flesh). God’s words made it clear to us: The substance of God is Spirit, and with Him there is no distinction of gender. Only when God is incarnated on earth and becomes an ordinary person due to the needs of His work, is there a distinction of gender with Him. But regardless of whether God incarnate is male or female, His divine substance doesn’t change, and both can accomplish the work God wants to do. In the first incarnation, He was male, and this time He is female, which totally breaks apart man’s conceptions. Otherwise, man will draw the conclusion that God is only male.”

Hearing Sister Sun’s fellowship, I was inexpressibly delighted, as the years of confusion in my heart was finally released. If it had not been for God’s revealing the mystery, I would have defined God as male forever, and my conception would never have been resolved. At that time, I felt remorse and said to my wife, “My dear, this is truly God’s new work. It has been preached to us for so many years, but we simply refused to accept it, just because we didn’t know God and delineated Him by our conceptions and imaginations. Fortunately God didn’t abandon us, otherwise, we would have lost God’s salvation in the last days. Since you have accepted it, why didn’t you tell me earlier?” In tears she said, “Thank God for having not left us. Before, when someone came to preach about the Lord Jesus’ return, we never listened to them, much less did we seek or investigate, so we have missed many great opportunities to be saved by God. These days I’ve been investigating this way, but I was afraid that you wouldn’t accept it, so I didn’t tell you.”

In the following two days, Sister Sun continued to fellowship with us and solved all our puzzles. Then, we both accepted Almighty God’s work in the last days formally. All the glory be to Almighty God!

What's the physical home?

Home is somewhere someone is waiting for you, a lamp in hand.

When you are hungry, home is your restaurant.

When you are cold, home is your warm coat.
When you are crying, home is a shoulder for you to lean.
When you are desolate, home is a harbor for you to anchor.

However, one day, lamps can be off; restaurants can close the door; coats can be worn out; shoulders may be other's; harbors may be too far.

But a harbor of God's bosom is the true home and forever there to waiting for your return. He is the rock and shield of our hearts. This movie with 21,0000 views has interpreted true home vividly. Remember taking a bag of tissue with you for your tears will surge like billows.

Introduction:

Wenya's parents separated when she was two, and after that she lived with her father and stepmother. Her stepmother couldn't stand her and was always arguing with her father. He had little choice—he had to send Wenya to her mother's house, but her mother was fully focused on running her business and didn't have any time to take care of Wenya, so she was often shuttled off to her relatives' and friends' homes to be fostered. After so many years of a life of foster care, young Wenya felt lonely and helpless, and longed for the warmth of a home. Only when her father and stepmother divorced did she return to her father's side, and from then on had a home, for better or for worse. Once Wenya grew up, she was very cautious and obedient, and she studied hard. But just as she was working hard to prepare for her college entrance examinations, misfortune came upon her: Her mother had a brain hemorrhage and became paralyzed and bedridden. Her stepfather abandoned her mother and even took control over all of her assets, and then her father was hospitalized with liver cancer…. Wenya could not possibly take on the burden of the household, so all she could do was plead with relatives and friends, but she was turned down. … Just as Wenya was suffering and without recourse, two sisters from the Church of Almighty God bore witness to Wenya, her mother and sister on the work of Almighty God in the last days. They came to understand the root of pain in people's lives from the words of Almighty God, and understood that only if people come in front of God can they gain God's protection and live in happiness. Only through the comfort of God's words were mother and daughters able to come out from their pain and helplessness. Wenya genuinely experienced the love and mercy of God; she finally felt the warmth of a home, and came into a true home. …
